Drug-coated Balloon Versus Drug-eluting Stent in Acute Myocardial Infarction

NCT ID: NCT02219802

Last Updated: 2014-08-19

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: UNKNOWN
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Total Enrollment: 120 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2014-08-31

Brief Summary

Rationale: Compared with balloon angioplasty, implantation of bare metal stents (BMS) and drug eluting stents (DES) have shown to reduce repeat target lesion revascularization in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). However, this did not result in a reduction of mortality or recurrent myocardial infarction. Furthermore, there are concerns of the occurrence of stent thrombosis. The PAPPA-pilot study, evaluating safety and feasibility of using a drug-coated balloon (DCB) only strategy in PPCI, showed good short- and long-term clinical results, with sustained safety and efficacy at 12 months follow-up. To date little is known about the long-term effects of this treatment modality in STEMI. Besides, angiographic follow-up is of great clinical importance by giving insight on the treated infarct lesion and to assess the functional angioplasty result.

Objective: This randomized controlled, non-inferiority trial is mainly designed to prospectively assess the safety and efficacy of a CE-marked paclitaxel-eluting balloon only strategy vs. third generation DES in the setting of a ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Detailed Description

Rationale: Compared with balloon angioplasty, implantation of bare metal stents (BMS) and drug eluting stents (DES) have shown to reduce repeat target lesion revascularization in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). However, this did not result in a reduction of mortality or recurrent myocardial infarction. Furthermore, there are concerns of the occurrence of stent thrombosis. The PAPPA-pilot study, evaluating safety and feasibility of using a drug-coated balloon (DCB) only strategy in PPCI, showed good short- and long-term clinical results, with sustained safety and efficacy at 12 months follow-up. To date little is known about the long-term effects of this treatment modality in STEMI. Besides, angiographic follow-up is of great clinical importance by giving insight on the treated infarct lesion and to assess the functional angioplasty result.

Objective: This randomized controlled, non-inferiority trial is mainly designed to prospectively assess the safety and efficacy of a CE-marked paclitaxel-eluting balloon only strategy vs. third generation DES in the setting of a ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Study design: This is a prospective, single center, non-inferiority, randomized controlled trial.

Study population: All patients presenting with STEMI and suitable for PPCI.

Intervention: PPCI will be performed according to current guidelines. After thrombus aspiration and pre-dilatation, randomization between a DCB only strategy (with bail-out stenting if indicated) and DES will be done by 1:1 ratio. Concomitant medication will be administered according current standards. Control coronary angiography, including measurement of the fractional flow reserve (FFR) of the treated lesion(s), will be performed after 9 months.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study parameter is the fractional flow reserve at 9 months follow-up. Secondary study parameters include cardiac death, recurrent myocardial infarction in the target vessel area and ischemia driven target lesion revascularisation at 9 months.
